Came to my Rescue

"Came To My Rescue"

Falling on my knees in worship
Giving all I am to seek your face
Lord all I am is yours

My whole life
I place in your hands
God of Mercy
Humbled I bow down
In your presence at your throne

I called you answered
And you came to my rescue and I
I wanna be where you are

My whole life
I place in your hands
God of Mercy
Humbled I bow down
In your presence at your throne

I called you answered
And you came to my rescue and I
I wanna be where you are

In my life be lifted high
In our world be lifted high
In our love be lifted high

I called you answered
And you came to my rescue and I
I wanna be where you are

Sharing with you today a wonderful anthem from Hillsong United. The song's entitled "Came to my Rescue" and I have copied and pasted the lyrics above. I also shared the Youtube link of its lyric video in case you want to listen to it.

God bless you!

Let God

Everyone of us go though different situations every single day of our lives. It may be a good one or a bad one. But the good thing is, even if we go through bad times God guaranteed us that He will always be with us no matter what the the situation is.

Just in case you're going through something tough today, this one's for you. Never hesitate to pray and ask God for help. God won't bring you to it if He can't get you through it.

In times when you do not know what to do, why not pause for a minute and let go of all your worries and doubts?

Psalm 46:10 reads,  "Be still and know that I am God."
Psalm 107:29 reads,  "He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed."

Learn to let go and let God. That is something God has taught me when I was in my darkest hours. Rest assured, I have come stronger afterwards and it's not because I'd endured it with my strength but it was God who made all things work together for my good. (Romans 8:28)

Have a meaningful Monday!

Writing from my heart,

Very much needed!

The photo above says it all.

Have a good night sleep! May this be something you could thoroughly reflect upon tonight, tomorrow and in the next coming days!

God loves you. xx

My Memory

For the past few days, I have come to actually ask myself questions as follows:

“What if I die today?”

“If not today, what if tomorrow?”

“What if I vanished right now, how would people try to describe who I am as a person?”

“If they would hear my name, what would they say about me?”

At first I thought I was worrying about how short my life would be. Not because I am sick or anything like that but because I just know the fact my life is not in my hands. I certainly am not the one who’s in control of my life neither everything that happens around me so yeah, I have to be brave enough to accept the truth that I may or may not live until my skins got all the curves it could have due to aging.

On second thought, I finally realize that it wasn’t death that kept me worrying about such things. It was actually the memory I’d eventually leave the people and the world behind me once I step out of this world.

Like Augustus Waters who feared oblivion when he was once asked during his meeting with the support group he was in, I do fear oblivion too. Not in the sense that I fear being not remembered at all or I fear being not remembered just to think of my own glory but I do fear oblivion because it actually will remind me how I spent my life on earth.

An individual like me who has decided to follow Christ is someone made new. Restored. Revived. Made whole. One who’d left who she is back in the days when there was no Jesus in her life.

I do not seek for my own glory or fame. I do not live for myself now. I live for the One who made me and every single thing around me. This means my life now is full of value, sense and meaning. I cannot live the way I wanted to because my plans and dreams for my life are worthless and at the bottom because I am not smarter than my Creator so I have to live according to His will because I faithfully hold on to His promises as it is written in His word. My God is an all-knowing God so there is nothing left for me to worry about how my life here on earth would turn out if I’d just surrender myself wholly to Him and follow Jesus’ footsteps. (You can read Jeremiah 29:11, it’s actually one of my life verses.)

I know I’m not the only one thinking about how my memory would turn out one day but I actually don’t want to be remembered as someone just with the name I carry. I want to be remembered as someone who served as a salt and light to this world as how Christ had planned me to become into. As much as possible, I want to tell the world how real and awesome God is. I want the world to know how He’s turned my life around, how I’d regained my worth when I have come to know Him. I want to simply want the world to see that Christ who is alive lives in me.

Finally, when that day of returning back to my real home with the Lord comes, I’d be contented that I had glorified Him with how I spent my life on earth and it’s all thanks to Him. Having Christ in my life was simply the best thing that ever happened to me. Ever, I swear.

Have a great day, earthlings!

Love,

Cha
